Some friends recently went to Disneyworld for a week and they said they had never seen it so slow, and they are Florida residents so they used to go a fair amount. They say they will not be back but wanted to bring their grandkids once before they got to old. They now have season passes to Universal and Legoland. So if you think that the bottom line has not been impacted, you very mistaken.
When they ran out the previous CEO, whoever it was, and brought back Bob Iger, I thought maybe Disney would offer an olive branch to Florida and find a way to fix this riff, but instead they doubled down. As far as the lawsuit, we will see what happens, but if the Florida Legislature decides to strip Disney of all of its special provisions, which is squarely within their right to do so, then Disney will have no one to blame but themselves. It is not as if Disney is going to close up shop in Florida and move, despite what some of the idiotic talking heads have said. Disney is stuck there, it is like Crapgame said, they should have made a deal.
